8. Slide rail assembly as far rearward as possible then using frame bracket as template, and after checking rails are

9. Thread 5/8” x 2” knurl bolt onto pull wire (

Figure 16

). Insert straight end of pull wire into access hole and guide

wire through drilled mounting holes. Pull wire out through mounting hole to position rib neck bolt for connecting rail
bracket and chassis rail (

Figure 17

). Repeat process for all four knurl bolt locations.

10. Loosely attach frame brackets to frame using 5/8” x 2” rib neck bolts, spacers, lock washers, and nuts; fasten until

hand tight (

Figure 17

).

11. Using pointed bolt (

Figure 18

), screw pointed bolt in to the nuts that are welded to the rail assembly until a prick

mark is visible in the truck bed (

Figure 17

). Access to the fourth welded nut is obstructed by chassis components;

the fourth prick mark must be measured from the other three prick marks (

Figure 19

). If you have a plastic bed

liner cut 19” X 4” slots in plastic drop-in bed liner measured from prick marks in truck bed. If the

CAUTION:

It is important that 21/32" drill be used for holes in chassis

frame as knurl bolts may break if too small a hole is used

and neck may not grip if too large a hole is used.
